摘要:
Abstract.In four dicotyledonous species low levels of N strongly inhibited leaf expansion during the day but had little or no effect at night. In contrast, daytime and night‐time expansion were equally affected in four cereal species. The results support the general concept that in dicotyledons, N controls leaf expansion through its effects on hydraulic conductivity. In such N‐limited plants, water deficits generated by transpiration may inhibit daytime cell expansion. In cereals, cell expansion and transpiration occur in separate zones of the leaf and are apparently unrelated.Growth analysis showed that low levels of N inhibited leaf area growth more strongly in dicotyledons than in cereals, but had similar effects on net assimilation rates of plants in the two groups. As a result, dry matter production was more efficient in cereals than in dicotyledons when N was limit
